Problems in Abstract Algebra, Paperback / softback Book

Problems in Abstract Algebra Paperback / softback

Part of the Student Mathematical Library series

Paperback / softback

Description

This is a book of problems in abstract algebra for strong undergraduates or beginning graduate students.

It can be used as a supplement to a course or for self-study.

The book provides more variety and more challenging problems than are found in most algebra textbooks.

It is intended for students wanting to enrich their learning of mathematics by tackling problems that take some thought and effort to solve.

The book contains problems on groups (including the Sylow Theorems, solvable groups, presentation of groups by generators and relations, and structure and duality for finite abelian groups); rings (including basic ideal theory and factorization in integral domains and Gauss's Theorem); linear algebra (emphasizing linear transformations, including canonical forms); and fields (including Galois theory).

Hints to many problems are also included.
